A Letter To An Immigrant In Shanghai
Hi Dr Gwee,
I have arrived in Shanghai.
This morning the alleged employee recognizes that the supplier is his company. I did all the investigations and I have evidence that he could not deny. It took me time to figure out how I should conduct the interview. Actually, I learn it from you.
I keep asking myself how you would do it. I am going to have a very busy day tomorrow.
Good night
Sophie

    In the short story “The Chinese in All of Us”, Rodriguez says, “I think of myself as Chinese” (242). It only brought the thought to my attention that he must be confused. Like most minorities, he gives off the impression that he’s trying to “fit in” America. Searching for identity and suiting himself with redundant thoughts for the comfort of acceptance and feeling the pleasures of the modern American society. I am a minority and I’m expressing from experience. Rodriguez says, “… culture is something we breathe, sweat, and live”. (242). If this is true, then what is his reasoning for choosing to identify with one ethnic culture other than his own? Why would not he just…

Some experiences for the Chinese were in racist encounters and the feeling the way that Nazli Kibra felt when she came to America.

    Through the decades, hundreds and thousands of immigrants immigrated to the United States. These immigrants sought for better opportunities in life and a second chance to start over. The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was passed, not because of the increasing numbers that where entering the United States, but the racism that were boiling in this so called “melting pot” of diversity. Many racial tensions began as Americans saw these Chinese as a threat to their jobs and the economy. During this time the Gold rush was happening in California, which China was in a period of poverty, which lead many Chinese to immigrate to California (Seattle.) Before the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, there was the Page Act of 1875, which denied and restricted many forced laborers coming from Asia. Then, there comes the Immigration Act of 1882, which was a restriction on most “non-desirable” Europeans that limited immigration from certain European region (Immigration Act.)

    Modern day Shanghai represents a bustling city with rapid urbanization and a significant foreign influence that has become an economic, global center. It is important to note, however, that it took centuries for Shanghai to be molded into this current, dynamic, fiscal city. From the 5th to the 7th century, Shanghai was sparsely populated. This inability to promote settlement within the region was largely due to the “deltaic position of the area” that ultimately retarded the city’s economic growth. During the Song Dynasty, as a result of the Mongol’s invading China, many Chinese migrated towards Shanghai taking advantage of its coastal location. In the 11th century, a customs office was established in Shanghai symbolizing the emergence of the…

By the 1840’s, the industrial revolution was reconstructing the east, due to newly created railroads, textile mills, and small cities that stretched across the entire eastern seaboard. By 1860, over fifteen percent of Americans lived in cities, and a staggering one third of the nation’s income was generated from manufacturing ("Immigration: The Journey to America"). Although the east coast was rapidly expanding during this era of industrialization,…
